A battered Vince steps out on to the ramp, wants to bury the hatchet with Stone Cold and asks for an apology. Steve Austin replies, "I'm sorry. Sorry I didn't kick your ass even more than I did." Then Vince tells HBK to give the people what they want, a Rock vs Mankind rematch - a ladder match.

Rock is once again the WWF champ (for the third time). Rock gets a stunner after the match.

I don't think Rock makes a very good hard-core style wrestler, after the brutal matches with Mick Foley, he didn't appear to be in very rough shape. Admittedly Rock is younger and in better shape but he should look a little more bruised. Sable on the cover of April's Playboy, or more significantly within the covers...

Chyna vs X-Pac: X-Pac chases Shane around the ring, HHH pedigrees Chyna, X-Pac while running thru the ring - stops to cover Chyna for the win. Inferno Match: (winner must set his opponent on fire) apparently taker threatened Vince personally, Paul Bearer delivers a package to Vince, taker and Kane battle back and forth, Vince opens the package and is profoundly troubled by a teddy bear. Undertaker wins when he unexpectedly shoves Kane's leg into the flames, then sets the teddy bear on fire, to leave Vince near tears on the ramp.

Sable's new attitude stinks, Shane with the belt is a joke, and Ken Shamrock needs to grow up. Though Vince has Rock and the Giant under control, there's still some animosity between these two stars. Stone Cold Steve Austin will be on Nash Bridges (Friday, February 26 at 10PM eastern on CBS).

(1999-02-28) Due to a satellite problem USA Network began the broadcast as audio only, then someone got the brilliant idea to run last week's episode.

Undertaker demolished Kurgan. Apparently the Blue Meanie has been trying to flatter Goldust. Droz attacks Blackman during an interview, then later accepts a Kendo Stick Match.
